Big sorry neil,I wrongly referred to R/elbow as being a wedge(forgive my no-brainer),
What I meant to say was,as the R/shoulder drives R/elbow down into impact zone,at what point does the R/elbow start to straighten,or does it start to unbend as soon as the downstroke begins.I hope you follow me.Thanks again
If anything,it bends more on the initial part of the downstroke.
The right arm can only begin to straighten when the left arm is thrown off the chest.
It is thrown off by the right shoulder moving down the selected plane, correct?
I would say it is (the left arm),thrown off the chest by the pivot.
Please remember my first post in this thread, -I stressed that my comments are from a swingers perspective.
I am well aware that this is the Hitters domain ,but I responded because I detected a confusion of components-maybe wrongly.
However ,from a swinger -it is all PULL-therefore "chain reaction"
